Pros

I feel valued and respected by my team, as an employee and as a human being. I am given the time and space to take care of myself and my family. I am given opportunities to grow, learn, and be

Cons

Location and commute can be difficult if you live in the north/east bay or south San Jose, and you want to return to the office. That's largely the fault of the Bay Area itself making commuting

  1. Intern Interview Interview

    Anonymous Employee in United States

    Negative Experience
    Easy Interview
    Application

    I applied online. I interviewed at 23andMe (United States)

    Interview

    The process was with three members and the manager. The manager did not interview me as much except, he was very laid back and asked general. The three members were okay. One just got back from a ride, unprepared, and asked very general questions nothing too specific. Another one asked questions out of google and did not care about interviewing. She was the worst. The manager's second interview did not interview me and just asked "any other questions?". The panel interview was bad, and the team was not that great.
